Goal: Promote and sell out the new collection of AgoraDEX Loot Boxes, created in collaboration with leading Web3 projects and SwissBorg.
What is a Loot Box?
AgoraDex introduced an exciting new feature called Loot Boxes. These mystery boxes, available to buy via the platform, unlock random prizes, including valuable NFTs, tokens, and other unique rewards across multiple top gaming projects.
Some Loot Boxes contain golden tickets, which can be collected to enter a jackpot draw for a chance to win even bigger prizes. Prizes also included collectibles from top NFT collections in the Web3 gaming ecosystem:
- 5 Yoga Petz: Unique and collectible digital pets.
- 9 PixelMon: Exclusive pixel art creatures.
- 7 Genesis Bakers: Original and rare baking-themed NFTs.
On top of NFTs, the Loot Boxes also included $AGA tokens which provide holders with privileges in the Agora ecosystem, including earning Loot Box revenues, accessing exclusive Loot Boxes, receiving purchase discounts, benefiting from token buy-backs and burns, and having governance rights in platform decisions.
The total reward value of the Loot Box collection exceeded $100K.
Gameplan
Our challenge was to design and execute a creative KOL campaign to maximize the reach, engagement, and sales of the Loot Boxes. We began by identifying and onboarding KOLs to promote the new Loot Box feature, with the goal of selling out 4000 Loot Boxes and driving community engagement.
To achieve this, we selected influential KOLs who aligned with AgoraDex’s target audience. We managed the entire campaign, from content creation to promotional strategies. We focused on interactive and mystery-driven content to drive engagement. Laura, our CEO, secured a $100K token allocation for KOLs, successfully raising $100K for AgoraDex.
Here is how we did it.
KOL campaign
Our KOL campaign was carefully designed to skyrocket community growth by selecting key opinion leaders who aligned with AgoraDex’s target audience. We picked KOLs known for their influence and credibility in the crypto and gaming communities to ensure they would effectively reach and engage potential buyers.
Each KOL gave away up to 5 Loot Boxes, creating real buzz and excitement. The thrill of potentially winning valuable digital items kept the audience engaged and eager. Even if people didn’t win in the giveaways, they were still motivated to purchase Loot Boxes for just ±$20 due to the potential rewards.
This strategy worked exceptionally well, driving hype and resulting in all Loot Boxes selling out quickly.

Final insights

Key insights:
- The excitement of Loot Boxes drove high participation.
- Unlike typical NFT giveaways, Loot Boxes’ randomness added an element of excitement. The potential to win a high-value prize kept users engaged and eager to participate.
- The possibility of bigger rewards kept people coming back.
- The element of surprise and the chance to win larger prizes motivated users who received lower-value rewards to keep buying more Loot Boxes, hoping for a bigger win.
- Low entry barrier increased accessibility and engagement.
- With each Loot Box priced at just $20, many users found it easy to join in. This low cost encouraged more people to participate and even buy multiple Loot Boxes, driving higher engagement and, ultimately, sales.
